This week, Mike sits down with Duncan and Aaron, the founders of Songwriting Magazine, a UK-based publication (available in both print and digital formats). But they’re more than just publishers —they’re creators in the trenches with us!

That's what makes their magazine so good, they understand what songwriters and musicians need! They strive to deliver inspiration by bringing in working producers, industry professionals, and fellow artists to help navigate the ever-changing music landscape.

Tune in to hear their passion for songwriting, the magazine’s mission, and why Songwriting Magazine is a must-read for songwriters everywhere!

Consistency is key—but it doesn’t exist in a vacuum. This week, we’re exploring what truly fuels it: dreams.

Dreams spark ambition, give us purpose, and makes commitment easier. Science backs it up—imagination boosts resilience and deepens creativity. When our goals are personally meaningful, staying consistent feels natural.

I’ll share a moment from a recent trip home- how going through a literal dark tunnel became a metaphor for my evolving perspective on ambition.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, this episode is for you. Let’s explore how small steps toward our dreams can unlock new ideas and fuel our creative journey.

Consistency is a total game-changer. It’s your secret weapon in the music industry and it's THE difference between staying stuck and moving forward. If you want to build confidence as a musician and shake off imposter syndrome, commitment to consistency is the missing piece you need. And here’s the secret—consistency doesn’t mean buckling down, being miserable and doing it alone. Surrounding yourself with a community of like-minded musicians will help you stay the course.

Most people aren’t consistent, and that’s exactly why it’s your advantage, because it's actually rare. When you commit, you’ll build a network of collaborators who follow through, persist, and create real momentum.

Ready to take that step? Email me at mike@songwritingforguitar.com, let me know you listened, and tell me you’re committing this year!
